Key stages of AI development
The structure and exact steps of custom AI development for startups will depend on your niche, business goals, and technical constraints. Typically, we’ll go through the following stages:
- 01
Discovery and architecture planning
⠀ 1-2 weeks
We review your product vision, sample datasets, target user workflows, and cloud requirements to map out a clear technical architecture and choose the most cost-effective LLM or ML stack.
- 02
Team assembly
⠀ 1-2 weeks
You’ll be able to handpick and align a cohesive, pre-vetted engineering squad matched precisely to your technical stack, product vision, and company culture.
- 03
MVP development
⠀ 1 month
We build an initial prototype combining frontend interfaces with base AI models, prompt engineering, and core workflows to validate key user interactions early.
- 04
Integration and refinement
⠀ 2-3 weeks
Our team develops robust backend services, implements fine-tuning or RAG pipelines, connects vector databases, and polishes the user UI/UX into a market-ready product.
- 05
Continuous optimization and scaling
⠀ Ongoing
Post-launch, we can monitor model performance, implement data observability, optimize latency and API consumption costs, and scale infrastructure as your active user base grows.

How quickly can a dedicated AI engineering team kick off?
Because our talent pool is pre-vetted, we can typically match you with senior engineers and kick off initial discovery within a few weeks.
-
How much does it cost to build an AI product?
Costs depend on product complexity, dataset readiness, and integration scope. An initial AI MVP typically starts with a lean, focused engineering squad for 4–8 weeks. We offer flexible hourly and dedicated team structures to keep runaway token and cloud costs under control. Drop us a line to discuss your particular project.
